We always think that, I wish everything could be perfect! Our life, Our Partner, Our bank account, Our Jobs..I mean everything! but have we ever asked ourselves what happens when actually everything becomes perfect!?
Lets us now dive into the world of imagination.... A world which is actually perfect.. Close your eyes and think .. (actually believe).. that everything around you is perfect.... Now look around, we are living in a place which is a paradise (some would say heaven), green all around, an owned lake, an owned waterfall even!, you are sitting on couch with a pleasant weather, a sunny day with your family or loved ones.. with cheers of children and so on... let your imagination go wild to create that perfect world in your mind.. Also Imagine around that every Kid in this world scoring 100% marks and getting 1st rank!. Imagine any sport played and the result is all wins no loses!. Imagine everybody is the boss and everybody is an employee!. Imagine everything is free! and everything is easily available!
Now comes the interesting part.... IMAGINE living the same life over and over and over again as since everything is perfect it means that it can't be changed or should I say it can't be made better..
Let us take your partner for that sake... Since he/she is perfect you don't see any more changes i.e. no change in looks, no change is styles, no change in personality.. and so on and so forth...
Let us talk about your kid, He scored highest marks in his class but so did the other kids in his class..
Let us talk about your parents, they gave you everything you liked no restrictions at all!
Now comes the round of questions... Why do you think you work hard and feels the passion in your bones that drives you through ? Why do you love your partner and what makes that love go deeper and deeper? What makes you love you parents love go deeper and deeper?? What makes you use your brains to think, to run to lets say create a portfolio what makes your money grow at a rapid rate?? What makes you wake up early in the morning and make you exercise even though you actually hate to do it?? How will you measure success as everybody in the perfect world is successful?? How will you rate your achievements... actually the question should be is there anything left to be achieved??
So lets us discuss imperfection for moment, the world around us as is (the so called imperfect world!).........
Let us take you partner for a moment. Lets say your partner can't cook well and you know that but You are in still in love, now one day that partner cooks for you and the food is delicious wouldn't that love that you feel go deeper??!!
Now let us take a example of a kid, a younger brother or sister or whoever.. He/she is good at everything but never able to secure more than 60% in his exams and then after hardwork and dedication scores not only higher but also secure first rank!, don't you feel proud ?!!
Let us take your job for that matter... You are unhappy with your job, you think you are been overburdened with work while your senior sits Ideal on his seat, and all of sudden you are promoted for your good work , don't you feel motivated and seeks to even work harder??!!
So in short The simple answer to all above is Imperfections!. That's right!! the drive to make things better, the drive to achieve more! make us tick our life, that bring every emotion that we carry into us. We always strive to make our little world perfect, to change what we have, to change what we are... and in the process find so many moments that makes our life worth living!
